:???:
Sme uses Clam Antivirus for virus scanning and Spamassin for spam. Why are you looking
to use MailScanner when the functionality is already there for spam and anti virus?

Please see
http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Documentation:FAQ#Real-time_Blackhole_List_.28RBL.29

Once you enable RBLs via command line, 90% or more of your incoming spam emails will disappear (ie be rejected).

Also if you want spamassassin to be active (spamd), you will need to enable spam filters (spamassassin) in server manager. Spamassassin is different to RBLs, with both running spam will mostly be a thing of the past.

See the FAQ for lots of useful info:
